"Oooh, look!" Miriam slowed for a u-turn. They had been driving the county routes and dead ends. The third sofa. "Free" written on cardboard. A recliner.
Her daughters tumbled out. Mitzi leaped from the hatchback. The girls bounced. One bounced on the recliner.
"Here Mitzi!" Mitzi jumped.
"Over here!" One daughter bounced on the sofa. Cushion to cushion. Mitzi twirled.
Miriam pointed to the recliner. "This one?" One daughter squealed. "That one?" nodding to the sofa. The other squealed.
Mitzi spun.
Miriam placed two cushions into the far back. Mitzi jumped. The girls slid. Miriam drove.
"That's enough for today."
